And before packing up the table I dry brushed the whole body,added fuel staining to the tank's and airbrushed light earth around 

the wheel's and lower body.

Lovely progress Steve! Looking very good. :thumbsup:

Kind regards,

Many thank's Stix,the old aircraft mojo has gone for the moment I'm struggling with two in a couple of GB's so armour is keeping

me going right now,I bought a Revell Super Cobra yesterday thought maybe a Helo might get round the problem.

I must admit I'm leaning towards armour at the moment and really enjoying it, although I am going to have a go at a Tamiaya Mossie in the De Havilland Mega GB.

Hi folk's,added the last of the armour plating and some pack's and other items,all that's left is the fitting of the guns and steering wheel

and a little bit of dashboard detailing.

Hi folk's pay week and I popped into my LMS intent on trying to rediscover my aircraft mojo which has gone AWOL I have tried the middle

ground between aircraft and armour over the last few week's and got this far I even took knife to plastic and opened up the cockpit so far 

so good!

Anyway I've enjoyed the smaller soft skin builds so much and the 20% of Tamiya on at the moment I cameout with these two for well under

the price of most 1/48 aircraft kit,s so next two builds will be these two.

Both beautifully molded and detailed and I think the schemes are great too,make a start soon.

Lovely builds, Steve ! This SAS Jeep is cool :)

Many thank's Bernd,all the complete builds are in RFI,the Mutt has had it's last colour added and I have put a wash over before

dry brushing the highlights and only need to add the windscreen.
